    Two copies purchased from Amazon in March 2025 had considerable warps. They still play OK, but with a little motion of the ocean.

      Surprised... Hearing these songs differently for the first time. Is this a remaster ?
      Sounds much better than I expected, very happy...
      I don't have any other versions to compare it to..

        I have zero complaints with this. The vinyl is very well pressed, clean and flat. Sonically, I’m very happy. The tracks sound great.

          I got the Barnes Noble edition which is the exact same thing just released a couple months earlier than general release. Quality of the pressing is excellent, super quiet, and great to listen to it cranked up! A great selection of her best songs except the Like A Prayer is NOT the original album version ( this collection has the crappy version). Overall very satisfied with the packaging, art work and the vinyl itself.

            This has some tracks with remixes. But all are great. The best and cleanest vinyl I've ever seen from a modern release. Quiet vinyl and no dirt on stylus or brush. Pressed By – Record Industry. You guys rock!! And the best thing is "NO 180 GRAM OVERWEIGHT BRICK" It's about 140 grams and just the perfect weight.

              Stupid Money Grab, probably sounded amazing back in 1985 too.

                This should be titled 'Exclusive Edition" to Barnes and Noble, not "Special Edition" as there is nothing new just pressed on 150gr black vinyl. However, the sound quality is AMAZING. Extremely low noise, no inner groove distortion, all labels centered. Definitely worth picking up if you don't have it already.
